Pros

I have some pretty decent benefits; the one I am most excited about is my 401(k) - 100% vested from day one, and they match up to 6%. Also, you really have to work hard to get yourself fired from there.

Cons

Everyone has the possibility of working on the holidays, unless you randomly have that day scheduled to be off. And you can get some real doozies for customers, especially around Christmas.

Pros

Advancement opportunities, great at developing skills, great place to learn a skill and grow your resume, or grow with the company.

Cons

Understaffing issues negatively affects all parts of their business. However, Walmart has increased their minimum hourly rate with hopes to attract more committed employees, and retain better employees.
